1552. As if you were a strong elephant,
you wandered in the cruel mountainous forest
with Sita, your wife with long spear-like eyes
and a beautiful forehead like a bow.
You are good, you are Nārāyanān
and you took the form of a man-lion.
Tell me, how can I bow to you, the Lord of Naraiyur and worship you?
